How much has everyone gained by the time they hit the 3rd trimester? Next week I'll be in my 3rd trimester and I've only gained 14 lbs.. Don't know if that's bad or good lol
I use it twice a day cause on my ride side I have a few little ones but my belly really isn't itching all that much @sammimillette
I barely use lotion. lol its horrible, I usually only do it after I get out of the shower. but my belly hasn't gotten to the point where it's so stretched that it itches a lot. with my first, I did the same thing, then as I got further into my pregnancy, when I started getting bigger, that's when I really started to lather it on all the time.
Yeah so I've gained just a few less than you lol @brittlangdon22
I will be 27 weeks on Monday and I have gained only 17 pounds. The doc said it's a normal and healthy weight
I mean a few are okay but don't want my whole stomach to look crazy lol my friend showed me her stomach and literally the whole thing is filled with big long pink stretch marks its bad @sammimillette
I got stretch marks that I didn't even know we're there until he came out. but you can barely see them because they are the same color as my skin, just a little shiny, and they are coming back now with this pregnancy. I'm not too worried about it, because they do fade, at least they did for me.
@mina17, I'll be in my 3rd trimester next week .. I'm 27 weeks and 3 days and oh I see that makes sense @mandy890 and that's really good @autumnjolene
I'm super active and I was overweight when I got pregnant. So they only wanted me to gain 10 lbs total. But my job is very active so it helps. Plus I can't eat a lot anymore because my stomach is so squished up into my rib cage lol
I've only gained 7 back from what I've lost. I'm still 6 lbs down from pre pregnancy weight and I'm 36 weeks tomorrow
@mina17, what do you mean rub?! Lol and yeah when it itches I put my lotion on
Yeah I feel like I'm in the normal weight range then lol @lexirosex3 and lucky @sammimillette that's what I'm worried about is I don't want to gain too much weight lol. Esp cause of stretch marks.. You can loose the weight after but those things are hard to get rid of!
@kaela3, just don't itch or rub on ur body that's what causes stretch marks moisturise eveyday
with my first, I gained 65lbs. lol and it certainly didn't look like it. but the day I went home from the hospital I was wearing my normal clothes.
I weighed 121lbs before I found out I was pregnant Went yesterday for my glucose tolerance test and I now weigh 140lbs. The doctor said "good" when she seen my current weight she said it's where it should be, I'll be 29weeks tomorrow. Basically so far gained 19lbs
Oh trust me I miss mine too!! @mina17 I'm just praying I don't get stretch marks on my belly I use lotion everyday but that doesn't always work 100%
I was 98 lbs when I started, two weeks ago I was 152lbs, appt on Monday.
@kaela3, lol I miss my body tho and at least u have a butt and big breast you should be all good 😁😁
Geez you were tiny before you got pregnant!! I was 90 lbs a few years ago before I got on birth control then I gained weight lol. I know I feel fat too guys haha even tho I haven't gained much mm amatobe8516 @mina17 I basically gained 6 lbs in a month. I feel like that's a lot but my dr said I'm good
@kaela3, b4 I got pregnant I was 90 pounds when I hit 2nd trimester I gained 109 now in my 3rd trimester I have gained 130 pounds ugh I feel fat
People say my butt has gotten bigger but I don't see it but my boobs deff have and my face is filled out more I hate it @klove2016
I started at 120 and now weigh 131 and I'm 28 weeks, I go on Tuesday to see how much more I've gained cause I know I did I can feel it in my belly and legs 😩
Yeah... I question where it's at.. But my normal healthy weight should've been at 125 before pregnant... Lol but it's all in my belly and butt. Haha. My midwife hasn't said anything to me.. So I guess I'm gaining like I should. Haha
You don't even look like you gained that much tho lol! I was like 109-110 before I got pregnant so normal weight and now I'm 124
dont worry to much about it. mainly its all about baby being healthy.... you will loss the waight after the baby is born.
Not bad! I don't want to gain like over 35-40 lol @mrs.rcleveland but I know the last trimester is when the baby puts on the most weight 🔫
i think my overall gain so far had been 20 pounds
I've gained 15 my whole pregnancy! As long as baby is healthy you got nothing to worry about girl

My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️

“You look too young to be a mom!”
Or how about …
“You have a BABY? No! You look like a baby yourself!”👶
Oh wait, here’s a good one …
“Are you the nanny, ooor … ?”
“No, yeah I’m his mom,” I’d reply. “Yes, I am young,” I’d agree.
Considering I got pregnant straight out of college, I was certainly on the younger end of the parenting spectrum. (No one was more surprised than me, I assure you.) And yet, I wasn’t exactly a teen mom. I wasn’t juggling school courses and motherhood, like so many s...
I just absolutely love some women on here! Some woman wants to write on another women's post telling her she shouldn't be having sex at all in the beginning of pregnancy. I didn't know she was her doctor. Then she wants to tell me that the first trimester is only 1-9 weeks pregnant. And she lost her baby at 4 weeks pregnant due to sex. Like sweetie that's your period starting!
